Circular References and Iterative Calculations

This following chapter comes from Cold Regions Pavement Engineering, which prepares you to make the right decisions in areas where freezing temperatures, unstable soils, snow and ice, sparse population, and often limited funds dictate the design and maintenance of pavement structures. Filled with the latest research and proven techniques from the United States, Canada, and Northern Europe, the book examines cutting-edge design and maintenance methodologies, the selection of optimal pavement materials, calculations of proper structural design, construction and rehabilitation strategies—including economic limitations, investigation and testing, and more.
